MANCHESTER City are the bookmakers’ favourites to retain the Premier League title, and there isn’t a Liverpool player, coach or fan who seems to mind that too much. That’s got to change eventually. Liverpool teams have been wonderful underdogs at various times during...
SMILES were back on Liverpool faces at Anfield on Saturday as three points were secured against Bournemouth. It was a performance befitting of one of the most electric sides in football, and saw them entertain the masses and briefly take their place back at the top of...
SATURDAY was great. A win always helps, great goals always help, but it was much more than that. From the widely shared call to arms from The Spion Kop 1906 lads last week, to the rallying cry from Kenny Dalglish on the eve of the match, to the game-day notes from...
